The bark of young trees is smooth and ash-grey, later becoming up to 3 cm thick and barky. The bark proportion of the trunk is very high and is 16-24 %.

Characteristic and wood color
Sapwood and heartwood are well separated. The sapwood is narrow and light yellowish brown. The heartwood is dark reddish brown when freshly cut, later it turns darker. The annual rings are sharply marked by very broad, dark late wood zones, slightly wavy and matt-glossy on the surface. Resin channels are clearly visible. The wood is very resinous. The structure is usually very straight grained and relatively knotless, the texture moderately coarse but even.
